Fibromyalgia

CORE Health Centers is dedicated to the natural relief of your fibromyalgia symptoms. Fibromyalgia is a disorder from which patients suffer chronic, widespread muscle pain, fatigue, and numerous tender points throughout the body. Individuals suffering from fibromyalgia may also experience other symptoms such as irritable bowel syndrome, sleep disturbance, headaches, restless leg syndrome, temperature sensitivity, and memory problems or mental fog.

symptoms and treatment

The widespread muscle pain associated with fibromyalgia can cause tightening in the muscles of the back, and all four quadrants of the body. Tightened muscles result in a lack of mobility in the spine, leading to even tighter muscles, less sleep, and more muscle pain. This makes chiropractic treatment of fibromyalgia essential to prevent the exponential increase of pain and symptoms over time.

The experts at CORE Health Centers are the chiropractic professionals you need to help relieve and prevent your fibromyalgia pain and related symptoms. Through regular spinal adjustments, our team of chiropractors can help you maintain the mobility of your spine, thus lessening the stress of the back muscles and relieving muscle pain. These regular chiropractic adjustments can also protect the small supporting muscles of the spine, preventing any further injury. In patients with fibromyalgia, which prevents the complete healing of muscles, the prevention of muscle injury is essential for long term pain relief.

Treating Fibromyalgia

CORE Health Centers offers complete Chiropractic and Wellness programs designed to provide non-narcotic, non-surgical solutions for pain relief and rehabilitation. If your daily life is being affected by Fibromyalgia or other treatable conditions, the CORE Health Centers team can help relieve your symptoms and help get you on the road to a pain-free life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fibromyalgia

What is fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition that causes widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and tenderness throughout the body. Many people with fibromyalgia also experience headaches, stiffness, difficulty concentrating (“fibro fog”), and increased sensitivity to touch. While there is no cure, many people find symptom relief through a comprehensive treatment approach.

Can chiropractic care help people with fibromyalgia?

Chiropractic care may help some people with fibromyalgia improve mobility, reduce muscle tension, and better manage musculoskeletal discomfort. Because fibromyalgia affects everyone differently, treatment is individualized and often focuses on gentle techniques, movement, posture, and improving overall function rather than aggressive spinal manipulation.

What are the common symptoms of fibromyalgia?

Symptoms vary from person to person but often include: 

  • Widespread muscle and joint pain 
  • Persistent fatigue 
  • Morning stiffness 
  • Difficulty sleeping 
  • Headaches 
  • Difficulty concentrating or memory problems 
  • Increased sensitivity to pressure or touch 

Many people experience periods when symptoms improve and flare-ups when symptoms become more noticeable.

What causes fibromyalgia?

The exact cause of fibromyalgia isn’t fully understood. Researchers believe it involves changes in how the brain and nervous system process pain signals. Genetics, physical injuries, infections, emotional stress, and other medical conditions may contribute to its development in some individuals.

How is fibromyalgia diagnosed?

There is no single test that confirms fibromyalgia. A healthcare provider diagnoses the condition by reviewing your symptoms, medical history, and physical examination while ruling out other conditions that can cause similar symptoms. Your chiropractor may work alongside your primary care provider or other specialists as part of your overall care.

What should I expect during a chiropractic evaluation for fibromyalgia?

Your chiropractor will discuss your symptoms, health history, activity level, and any previous diagnoses before performing a thorough musculoskeletal evaluation. Because fibromyalgia can increase pain sensitivity, treatment recommendations are tailored to your comfort level and may emphasize gentle techniques and gradual progression.

Can lifestyle changes help manage fibromyalgia symptoms?

Yes. Many people benefit from regular low-impact exercise, improving sleep habits, managing stress, eating a balanced diet, and pacing daily activities to avoid overexertion. Your chiropractor may also recommend stretches, mobility exercises, and ergonomic strategies to support long-term symptom management. 

When should I seek medical care for widespread pain?

If you experience persistent widespread pain, significant fatigue, unexplained weight loss, fever, joint swelling, or neurological symptoms, it’s important to seek a medical evaluation. These symptoms may indicate another condition that requires diagnosis and treatment.
